Around Cairo

Whirlwind tour

These are some pictures that Jeff and I took as we wandered around Cairo for a couple of weeks in February. High on my list was the Lehnert and Landrock Bookstore, famous for their photographic depictions of Cairo in the early 20th century. We bought a load of postcards there.

Cairo is a great city to walk around. There is always something interesting to look at. Interesting people to see and talk to. It’s busy though, and full of cars and traffic, noise and pollution—not to mention that someone or another is always trying to sell you something. But hey, that’s the way it is. I wouldn’t love it so much if it were any other way.
